you look at the Miami Hurricanes in 2014, the biggest story you’d
have to bring up first would be their weekend pitching staff. It’s
not only talented, but it’s also experienced and seems to
consistently perform at a high level. In fact, it’s so deep that
someone as talented as Andrew Suarez doesn’t necessarily have to
start Friday nights for them. Eventually Suarez did move into the
Friday role this spring, but before he did Miami had other very

programs like Chris Diaz and Bryan Radziewski. But, Suarez now leads
the staff in innings pitched and has emerged as the team’s best
2014 draft prospect.
